London Fashion Week - Day 2 - 20/02/10

The sun was shining, the public were dressed to impress and the paparazzi were leering… just another day at LFW.
Our day started with the LFW exhibition. Many ranges were displayed, from accessories to NEWGEN, to Estethica, with every stand being completely unique.
Most of the Jewellery was themed, and the tarnished texture seemed to be the most popular. The ranges of clothing displayed a variety of fabric textures and shapes. The ‘worn look’ seemed to be repeated among the brands.

Favourite brands of the day …

KRON by KRON

Eye catching and avant-garde, KRON by KRON are the future of footwear. Designed by Hugrun Arnadottir and Magni Porsteinsson, form Iceland, these pieces of art are super feminine whilst displaying a bold range of colours, they also draw together quirky materials. They would brighten up and personalise any outfit.

After exploring the exhibition, Lizzie and I headed to the Bell Sauvage show. Not quite knowing what to expect, we took our seats in anticipation.
Virginia Ferreira and Christian Neuman are the designers behind the contemporary womanswear label, and are known for their striking digital prints and imaginative silhouettes.

The collection demonstrated elongated post-human silhouettes which highlight bold graphic prints, all of which, H.R Giger is the inspiration.



Then onto the highlight of the day, the star studded PPQ show. After mingling and taking in the atmosphere, we were taken to our seats to view what was dramatic display of ‘Fantasia’.
The collection bought together by Amy Molyneaux and Percy Parker, consisted of boned bodies, volume, and body conscious shapes. Opulent velvet, moray taffetas and silken crepe were all used to define the theme.
With a front row of celebs such as Peaches Geldof, Pixie Lott, Marina of Marina and the Diamonds, the Saturdays, George Lamb and the Skins cast, PPQ’s collection yet again, has given us exciting things to look forward to.
